Sport in the UK contributes significantly to community life. It’s a valued activity, bringing benefits to all the community, both as an enjoyable leisure pursuit, and as a contributor to enhancing quality of life.

STAR Hub, a new state of the art facility in Cardiff includes a swimming pool with access for all users, as well as a spacious health and fitness suite housing all-new Technogym equipment.

The new gym includes a functional fitness frame to allow for fun and challenging adaptations of traditional workouts. In short, STAR Hub is a haven for fitness that’s inspiring people in the local community to get fitter and more active.

In constructing the new facility, the specification of the flooring was at the very top of the agenda, to ensure that only the very best products were used. The ultimate choice fell to the installer, CS Flooring Solutions, who specified 320m2 of Taraflex® vinyl sports flooring from international flooring and interiors specialist Gerflor, to create a high performance finish.
